Uniform fashion

June 25, 2009

No doubt you’ll have seen this already, but I just wanted to ad my tupp’ny bit on this awesome project. Yes it’s fashion and therefore automatically unworthy to you boring culture snobs out there, but if you put down yer Morrisey album and look past the shallowness for a bi, you’ll maybe see how creative Sheena Matheiken is being – finding and styling a new outfit every day using only donated items (plus the One dress). Hopefully you’ll see the brilliance behind it.

At first I didn’t like the idea of a uniform for all. It brought 1984-images into my head. But then I saw it’s actually giving you more freedom to create and express your individuality. Having a more limited wardrobe means you have to work your artistic muscles harder, making sure you really get to the depths of who you are, and express it clearer.
